Any drivers attempting both? Tony Stewart used to do it and a few others I think.

I used to hit Charlotte every year for the CC600, and I remember when TS was making a go of the double-header.

If I recall correctly, they showed him on the jumbotrons bringing him to the infield via helicopter to make the start time. He was hooked up to a bunch of IV's and looked like he was already on the verge of collapse.

They say a normal NASCAR race can take 10 lbs off a driver in water-weight. With both events, and the CC600 being the longest, I don't know how he did it to begin with, let alone wanted to do it again. But Tony had the race bug. I've also heard the joke that Tony offered to fly the helicopter between the events.

Elec McGriff was about to try one year but his kidney problems prevented. Elec was from the Rock Hill area , I believe.

I like the F1 series but I would like it more if they raced on more ovals.

Most venues in F1 offer few places to pass and the top ten or so usually finish in much the way they started.

Also got bored with Lewis Hamilton.

The Mercedes he drove was just so superior to the other makes.

But it was interesting if he started poorly and had to come through the field to reach the podium

That will really mix up the field. McLaren has the edge right now — 2 best cars — but I’m hearing Aston Martin has the top designer and should surprise with the next car.

Isn’t the 600 only on Prime or is Fox carrying it too?
